Challenges faced by the Eligibility Center
Peak periods for the Eligibility Center occur as a sport’s
season begins
Students often left out schools they attended; this delayed the
receipt of a determination while we waited on transcripts
NAIA rules often require the Eligibility Center to contact a third
party for additional information

Learning from challenges
Tell prospective students to register early! Avoid peak times at the beginning of sport seasons
Help students understand eligibility requirements/what to have
ready when registering Students must disclose ALL schools EVER attended or
enrolled in and have official transcripts sent from each
Talk to students about how the registration process works Transfer student determinations take time; students
should be prepared to answer phone calls and emails
from the Eligibility Center

Common questionsRepeat classes
IF your school transfers in a class, then the Eligibility Center
defers to your evaluation of the course to determine whether
the student has a repeat at your school
If your school does NOT transfer in the class, then we
evaluate course descriptions and other relevant information to
determine whether the student has a repeat

Common questionsInternational students
NAIA admissions offices can send school-stamped copies of
international academic records These records must come from admissions or the
registrar’s office (not the athletic department) The records must be accompanied by a letter explaining
how documents were received by your school
How the Eligibility Center converts international university
credits may be different from the way your school does it The EC uses a conversion rate that assumes 30 U.S.
credits will be awarded for one academic year of
coursework if the student took a normal class load
